When I was 7 years old, I moved to another country. At school, I was mocked for my poor English as my previous schooling was in French. I was so angry that I decided to be better at English than the girls who mocked me. Today, I’m an international public speaker, author, and diversity consultant, in both English & Arabic! This experience is how I started turning anger into passion. Anger is a powerful emotion. It can be limiting and destructive. But if you learn to relabel it, you can turn it into steam for progress. If you control your anger, you can turn it into passion.
